Simone Silva
Martha Simone de Bouillard (15 August 1928 – 30 November 1957), better known as
Simone Silva, was an Egyptian and French film actress who appeared in a handful of British
B-movies during the 1950s. Silva, who was once quoted as saying she would "do anything" to get in the newspapers, was known however less for her acting than for her voluptuous figure and publicity-seeking activities. She briefly made global headlines following a notorious incident at the 1954
Cannes Film Festival where she posed topless with
Robert Mitchum for photographers, causing a sensation when the photographs were flashed around the world.
